It is with heavy hearts that we announce the loss of Elsie May Robertson, who went to be with her Lord and Saviour on December 27, 2025, just shy of her 81st birthday.
Left to hold her dear to their hearts are her daughter Carla, son Darren (Dannielle), step-son Donnie (Colleen), and step-daughters Linda and Laura; her grandchildren Sarah (Austin), Jessica (Mitchell), Michaela (Bryan), Cameron, Jamie, Dallas, Ashley, David, Kyle, Derek, Kimberly, Leah, and Jenna; her great-grandchildren Ethan, Audrey, Jayden, Eden, Pierce, and Oakley; and her sister Isabel, and brothers, John and Brian. Elsie also had many nieces, nephews, other family members, and friends who she loved dearly.
Elsie ascends into Heaven eternally joining her beloved husband, Chuck, brother Keith, and loving parents who went before her.
Elsie was a lifelong caregiver. From her career as a nurse, her volunteer work with the Salvation Army and the Mission Thrift Store, to being a support for other residents at Sunpointe Village – where she was a fixture in the hallways the past 3 years, bringing a smile to staff, residents, and visitors alike.
Elsie lived each day with a positive outlook, even in the face of struggle, and faced life’s challenges with courage and tenacity. She had a natural way of encouraging the people around her, lifting spirits with her strength, kindness, and unwavering resolve.
Elsie loved to travel, sing, share stories, laugh, and she had a great sense of humour. Above all else, Elsie cherished time spent with her family, who were the centre of her world.
Elsie will be deeply missed and forever remembered by all whose lives she touched.
A Memorial Service will be held on SATURDAY, APRIL 4, 2026, at 10:00 AM (PST), located at SPRINGFIELD FUNERAL HOME, 2020 Springfield Road, Kelowna, BC, with a reception to follow. For those unable to attend in person, the service will be available via Livestream, with a recording accessible within 3–5 days.
